Just put the boat on the trailer at Lake Casitas, Ventura, California and the entire week has been really steady. Most of the shad birds (grebs) are out in the middle of the lake still in deep water. We’re not seeing any shad in really shallow water, so that’s creating the Solid Forward-Facing Sonar to scan out and on open water for some of the Anglers. For the readers at Western Outdoor News, a plastic worm fished on an 1/8-ounce slip sinker Texas rig is the hot deal, 4-inch small worm any kind of brown or purple color is best. Lots of fish in that one to 3 pound range in shallow water which is what most of the readers are interested in. The open water fishing is all on forward facing sonar where the fish are suspended 15 to 20 feet deep over 50 or 60 feet of water. We have had some fantastic bluegill fishing at times, but the bluegill schools are moving around quite a bit. One day you’ll catch a bunch in one spot next day they move but it can be fantastic all you have to do is move around check lots of spots basic bluegill and redear fishing on a night crawler cut in half the fish are mostly in that 25-foot range www.richtauberfishing.com
